You could probably say that this is one of the most elaborate projects we’ve done. It was demonstrated on Martha Stewart Living several years ago, although the mirror was quite a bit smaller and just your typical rectangular kind. We began with an old plastic mirror frame and nearly six months, $500 and one failed version later, we had a masterpiece that was done by silver and gold leafing a sheet of glass and then etching a pattern into the gold leaf and topping off with a backing-coat of paint. We spray-painted the frame gold and dry brushed with deeper golds for an antique look. It has been one of the most talked about of our projects. Friends often tell other friends they know people who actually “made” a mirror!
